Right.

Every Democrat of Henry county
should 60 to the election with the proud con-
sciousness that his party is right.
Tt is right
On Federal taxation,
On the Public Lands, ..
On pensions,
On the civil service,
On State and Federal Sovereignty,
On the liquor question, ...,. ....
On the separate white and black schools,
On the State water ways,
On Home Rule for all cities,
On obedien ce of the State Constitution,
On every argument of the campaign,
On its excellent State and county tickets,
On its exposure of Foraker's land tax
swindle.
On keeping expenditures within the revenue,
There is no excuse for any Democrats
neglecting his duty.

sy- The Signal is crying stop thief in
order to hide the boodling schemes which the
Republicans are inaugurating to capture the
Legislature and the Auditor and Commits
sioners Office. 1t has raised the cry that the
Democratic candidates for Auditor and
Commissioner have raised purse of $500,
simply with the expectation to cover up the
fact that Geyser has given the Republican
gang $500, and also the fact that the Napo-
leon boodlers have raised purse of $500 to
be used to defeat Mr.. Hartnett and Mr.. Say
gers. We know this to be true and if anything
is heard "drap" it will be the Republican
candidates for Auditor and Commissioner
on election day, together with their corrupt
gang of boodlers, who may all find them
selves behind the bars for evading the cleo
tion laws.

Some Republican leaders are proposing
the scheme of employing certain Democrats
to work for them until after election and by
that means, prevent them, if possible, from
attending the polls. We say to Democrats,
watch such m ovements as that and foil all
such disreputable attempts Every man in
this country has right to cast his ballot and
it should be seen to that he has the privilege.

TRADE REVIEW.
A Review of Trade and Finance For tho
Week-Present Condition.

A Review OF Trade and Finance For tho
Week-Prcsent Condition.
NEW York, Oct. 8.-Brddstreet's, in its re-
view of the week, says: Special kilograms,
while reporting fair degree of activity in
the distribution OF general merchandise,
particularly OF groceries and hardware,
record a noticeable decline, taking the coun-
try Us whole, compared with the weekly
average during September. At Boston,
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, st. JO-
seph and Galveston, while no special de-
clines are noted, except at Philadelphia
and st. Joe, general trade has been moro
active within recent weeks than it is now.
There is a moderate check to the movement
Of dry goods at some Western centers. and
the demand for pig-iron is also less pro-
nounced, although prices continued firm
at st. Louis, Pittsburgh and New York. The
market as whole is more quiet The
leading domestic money markets are about
as last reported, with rather more freedom
in making mercantile discounts. At New
York the market is no easier. At Boston
there is more stringency. and at Philadel-
phla much more ease in effecting discounts.
There is no improvement in this direction
over last week in Kansas City, st. Joseph,
Davenport and Omaha, but at Chicago,
Burlington and Louisville the loan markets
are easier. At Chicago private lenders
are doing an increased business and the
banks have ample reserves. Lower ten
denotes were shown in the New York stock
market, due to the bear activity and based
on the Northwestern railway situation,
and the announcement of the sale of the
Baltimore 4, Ohio to the Western Union
produced but a temporary rally.

Grave Allegations I'm Tennessee Against tho
Governor OF Nebraska.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct. 7.-September Is
four white men employed at the stove fac
tory near Brunswick, Tenn, in this county,
arrested Jim Easter, a negro, on some
slight pretext, and after binding his hands
carried HIM into a canebrake, shot him 10
death, tied sack Of mud around his neck
and threw the body into Hatchie river,
where it was discovered about three days
afterward. W. p. Coffman, one of the
three men, was arrested at Brunswick, but
the three others fled. AL Mcmahon, one of
the murderers went to Ord, Neb., where
he was arrested by the sheriff of that
county and placed IN Jail. Two deputy
sheriffs armed with requisitiOn from
Governor Robert L. Taylor, Of Tennessee,
to Governor j. Thayer, of Nebraska, left
ten days ago to bring the fugitive back.
They returned to Memphis this morning
empty handed, Governor Thayer having
refused to recognize the requisition of Ten
nessee's Governor He made no excuse,
simply saying that he declined to issue a
warrant of extraditiOn. This has created
much indignation here. Attorney General
George b. Peters and other leading attor-
neys have so far been unable to find a
parallel case in the books. An evening
paper SAYS. editorially, this afternoon:
1.-THE action Of Nebraska's Governor is de-
serving Of the severest censure. A GRIM
inal, TO flee from Tennessee, need not cross
the line to Canada; Nebraska offers safer
retreat and the climate IS more invigorat-
ing"

the present activity in the region is great
the amount Of completed work in the Dor

"A city missionary relates an interest
ing and not wholly uninstructIve tale in
connection with his labors among the des-
titute. The incident occurred last winter,
and is literally true. He found in the
course Of his examination Of certain dis
trict woman who was not only wretchedly
destitute, but seriously ill besides. She
seemed very decent and not undeserving
person, an impression which accorded with
the reputation given her by her neighbors;
and tho missionary interested himself in
Der behalf. Every thing needfal for the
comfort Of the woman was done. Her
room was kept in order, she was
provided with . nurse, the young ladies'
brought her delicacies, and when at last the
patient was thoroughly convalescent, they
presented her with s, as q help toward
starting once moro on the way Of earning
her own living. A day or two later the
missionary called, and was pleasantly re-
ceived by the poor woman, who evinced
due gratitude for all the kindness she had
received. Then with overlooking self-sat-
isfaction and an absolutely childlike de-
light the pauper produced from q closet q
new and remarkably gay bonnet. There"
she said, beaming with satisfaction, ''don't
you think that is pretty! All my life I've
wanted bonnet with a feather in it, and
when got that s. all at once, said to my
self that now was my chance to have one.
The man asked 81 for it, but told him s.
was all I had and he'd have to let me have
it for that; and true as you're alive he did"

A coMsTlIUTIoNAL QUESTION.
Supreme Court COMMISSIONER Powers
Questioned.

Supreme Court Commissioners Powers
Questioned.
TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. I'm a suit before
the Supreme Court, the question of the
constitutionality of the law creating the
offices of the three Supreme Court Commits
sioners is raised. The action is that of
William Kelly, minor, against the Kansas
City, Fort Scott Il Gulf railroad for dam.
ages sustained by him in 1884. A jury in
the district court gave him a Judgment for
8, LOCO, from which the company appealed
to the Supreme Court, but was de-
feated at the last term, Judge Clogston,
one of the Supreme Court Commissioners
writing the opinion. The company claims
that the Commissioner had no legal right to
render a decision, upon the ground that the
law creating the Office was unconstitutional
and void. The attorney for the company,
General c. W. Blair, of LeavenwOrth, holds
that the Supreme Court has no power to del
egate its power. The creation Of this tribu.
nal, he claims, was an incOnsiderate attempt
by the Legislature to relieve the Supreme
Court. To be constitutional the tribu-
nal must be a court. If this Commission be
court at all it is not inferior in jurisdic-
ton to the Supreme Court, for its members
receive the same salary, paid in the same
manner as Supreme Judges, and it assumes
to examine and decide cases that are ap-
pealcd to the Supreme Court. If 1t can do
this legally then it is the equal Of the Su-
preme Court both in jurisdiction and dig
nifty, and is not authorized by the constitu
ton, but is specially interdicted by constl-
tutional limitations.

Resting at Madison.

MADISON, Wis, Oct. S.-The Presidential
train left Milwaukee for this place at 1899
a. m. yesterday. The run to Madison was
charming. 1t was through lake and hill
country, whose lands are as fertile as those
of Italy. The villagers along the way sped
the passing train with their cheers and in
several instances stations and streets were
adorned with evergreens and streamers.
The arrival at Madison was made upon
time. The President was then driven
directly to the capitol building, where he
was met by Chief Justice Cole, Of the Su-
preme Court, and welcomed.
When tho reception ended Mrs. Cleve-
land went at on 20 to the residence of Post
master General Villas, where she spent the
balance of the afternoon quietly. The
President was escorted by Governor Rusk
and Colonel Villas to the county fair
grounds where the farmers and exhibitors
had second opportunity to see him, and
after short delay, he, too, went to the
Villas mansion.
